Broncos running back room still expected to be a 55/45 split

As has been reiterated all offseason long, we hear one last time that the Broncos will be employing s split backfield between Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon

Related Players: Matt Boone

Fantasy Impact:

Given how similar the two backs' fantasy floors are, it's incredible that there is a seven-round difference in their ADPs. Starting Javonte Williams as your team's RB1 is sure to deliver headaches throughout the season. Gordon is expected to handle high-leverage situations like goal line and short yardage work.

Broncos RB Melvin Gordon: 'They want Javonte Williams to be guy'

Melvin Gordon on Javonte Williams getting the first snaps at practice: “They want ‘Vonte to be the guy”

Fantasy Impact:

This shouldn't come as a surprise. Gordon signed late in the game likely already knowing Williams may lead the way in snaps and touches out of the backfield. Still, Gordon should likely be involved and possibly a lot. Those who cover the team have said the split is around 60-40 in favor of Williams this summer. Finding a way to have both backs on your fantasy roster would be ideal - Williams is going in the late 2nd while Gordon is getting picked in the early 9th round.

Broncos RB Melvin Gordon back at practice

Melvin Gordon appears to be a full participant in practice.

Related players: Javonte Williams

Fantasy Impact:

Before Gordon went down there was a lot of talk about the workload split in practice with Williams. Some said it was 70-30 in favor of Williams but others argued it was more like 60-40. Gordon and Williams are poised to have similar roles, much like last year, we think. That's obviously going to cap Williams potential, especially after the team brought back Gordon, who was a free agent.

Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon close to a 50/50 split

Benjamin Allbright via Twitter

Aug 04, 2022 · 10:06 AM EDT

Broncos reporter Benjamin Allbright contests that the split between second-year Javonte Williams and veteran Melvin Gordon has "NOT been 70/30, per rep chart, it's 54/46".

Fantasy Impact:

It doesn't get much closer to splitting reps right down the middle than "54/46". Both backs can still be fantasy viable, but clearly, there is a cap to each one's production as long as the other is in the way. It's very possible both could end up nearing RB2 numbers, which would make Melvin Gordon far and away a better value at his current ninth-round ADP.
